Will, I do need to ask this question, but do you think that with all these new Optimus Prime figures that have come out since you last wrote that list way back when, an update is well overdue? I would love to see one, but I think it would be best to keep that for when MP-44 comes out, plus that would let you focus on other lists

If you like Movie Ironhide, I would recomend getting the SS version (I mean obviously, or else I would not have written it in the list). I like the leader for being big and fun (and scaling well with the leaders of old) but the SS is better for a few reasons:
- less fake parts (the leader has a fake grill which really pisses me off for some reason)
- less extraneous kibble (really dont like all the kibble that ends up all over the arms of the leader plus the back is pretty bad in terms of kibble)
- cleaner truck mode (this is something no ironhide ever gets right and while the SS still leaves much to be desired, its a bit better, especially at the front)
- better colours (less blue)
